For instance is you exhibit at a bridal fair, collect contact information, send out an e-newsletter and also postcards. This way you keep in front of the brides. Also, don't just do one mailing, plan a series so you get their attention. As with all marketing material, make sure it looks professional and represents your company well. I don't recommend buying lists, they are often outdated and inaccurate. Hi Tonia,
